Abstract

Yolk binding is a condition where the egg yolk as food reserves while the snake still in the egg phase is notcompletely absorbed in the snake’s body when the snake has become neonatal. This study aims todetermine the handling of cases of yolk binding in Python reticulatus. A 3-month-old female Pythonreticulatus was brought by the owner to the vet with complaints of not defecating after ten days from thelast feeding on and the presence of a ¼ lump from the caudal. The results of the stool examinationshowed the number of protozoa. The x-ray results, show the air-filled medial with radiolucent colorintensity and a mass with radioopaque color intensity. Based on the signals, history, physical examination,and investigations, a diagnosis of yolk binding was obtained. The treatment given is surgery, drug therapy,and post-operative care. After being brought home, five days after surgery snake died.

Abstract

Toxocariasis is a worm disease caused by infection of Toxocara cati. This study aims to identify the etiology, clinical symptoms, diagnosis, morphometry of eggs and worms in domestic cats at the Ontosenovet Animal Clinic Malang. The results of physical examination reveal enlargement of the abdomen, dull hair and hair loss. Hematological examination results showed a decrease in platelets, RDW-VC, and RDW-SD, an increase in lymphocytes, and MCHC. Examination of feces and worms and eggs is carried out at the Parasitology Laboratory of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Universitas Brawijaya. Stool examination is carried out using native and floating methods which showed the presence of worm eggs in the second method. The eggs show a slightly elongated or oval shape, thick walls, and a mottled surface. Worm eggs have an average length of 71,61 μm and a width of 59,87 μm. Worms obtained from cat vomit were then made preparations with Acetocarmine staining. The results of worm observations show three lips on the anterior, posterior end of digitiform and curved to the ventral. The results of morphometric measurements of adult T. cati show that the diameter of the worm, the length of the posterior end of the worm, and the width of the lips obtained an average of 754,14 μm, 545,19 μm, and 314,87 μm respectively. Overall body lengths of worm samples 1, 2, and 3 are 7,50 cm, 8,70 cm, and 7,80 cm with an average of 8,00 cm. Based on the examination the cat had toxocariasis due to Toxocara cati. The therapy given is an anthelmintic Drontal® (¾ tablet) which contained 20 mg praziquantel and 80 mg pyrantel.

Abstract

Lycopene, a potent antioxidant predominantly found in red-hued fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, has been incorporated into embryonic maturation media in vitro, demonstrating enhancements in embryo quality. Despite these advancements, the specific effects of lycopene on Zebrafish embryo quality remain unexplored. This study aims to investigate the impact of lycopene (0.65 ppm) on the development of Zebrafish embryos, focusing on hatchability (HA), and heart rate (HR) under conditions of heat stress (HS). Fertile Zebrafish embryos at the gastrula stage were induced HS (30oC; 1 hour). The embryos will be segregated into two groups: those exposed to HS and nonHS (28oC). Each group will receive one of three treatments (four replicates): control / without lycopene (P1), 2μL lycopene (P2), and 4μL lycopene (P3). Observations using an inverted microscope was done every three up to 48 hours post-fertilization (hpf), and subsequently every five hours up to 96 hpf. Quantitative data obtained for HA and HR were analyzed with SPSS, One-Way ANNOVA (p<0.05). The antioxidants contained in lycopene can influence the speed and success of Zebrafish embryo development and HA exposed to HS. In addition, the antioxidant in lycopene can also suppress the HR frequency of Zebrafish embryos exposed to HS. However, more studies about the optimum dose, purity, and stability of the lycopene extract should be done to make a definitive conclusion.
